Most modern email programs have a tool called filters (or mailboxes,
folders, etc.). You can have emails from certain edresses sent directly to
those folders. The trash is usually a built-in one (you can add others).
Many people find that it is convenient for them to have all LM_NET emails
sent to one folder, for example. Check your program to see how to set up a
filter to send all of those offensive messages (assuming they are coming
from the same edress) straight to the trash.

BTW, never respond to those messages. All you do then is tell them that
they have reached a valid edress. Best thing to do is just delete the messages.
